NS-1s or SAZ2500s??

[SAZCLASSD 10+ year member]

I currently have 6 Nightshade D1 V1 15s and 6 SAZ1500s wired at .5 ohm. I am looking to take out and sell the 1500s, but don't know which amps I should get to gain the most power. I want to notice a pretty significant difference than what I have now. I am debating on whether to get 3 Ns-1s and clamp them at 1 ohm or get 6 SAZ2500s and wire each of them down to .5 ohm like i have my SAZ1500s wired. I have the electrical setup to handle both ideas so that's not an issue....any thoughts or ideas anyone?????

I would do ns-1's why not do a pair of ns-1's strapped per 3 woofers

I don't really have a right to give you advice as my system is crap in comparison, so just my derpy thoughts...

The NS-1s have been clamped doing nearly 10K at 12.7V... I haven't seen a 16V clamp but efficiency is 78% at .7ohm with that amp.. so some math and science.. Maybe a flow chart. and you will have a rough estimate of how much it will make. 3 NS-1s on 16.. I wouldn't be surprised to see 38K total RMS
